UNO and DUE are designed around two different uses.

OKEPAS UNO is our water-friendly sneaker for the pool, beach, boat, seaside and other activities in and around water. It is unlined, quick-drying, features integrated water-drainage channels and provides excellent grip on wet and dry surfaces.

OKEPAS DUE is designed for all-day recovery comfort, everyday wear, travel, light sport activities and post-sport recovery. It combines an adaptive stretch-knit construction with our ultra-soft Sink-In EVA footbed.

Choose based primarily on how you plan to use the shoe.

Choose UNO if you want a water-friendly sneaker for the pool, beach, boat, seaside or other wet environments. Choose DUE if your priority is all-day comfort and recovery, including everyday wear, travel, light sport activities and post-sport recovery.

UNO = Water-Friendly Comfort.
DUE = All-Day Recovery Comfort.

Both UNO and DUE have standard sneaker length. UNO has a roomy fit with extra space around the forefoot and toes. DUE has a more secure fit, similar to a traditional sneaker.

If you are between sizes, we generally recommend the smaller size for UNO and the larger size for DUE.

Our Sink-In EVA uses an exceptionally soft material designed to provide deep cushioning while preserving its properties well over time.

Unlike many conventional footbeds that are compression-molded, the OKEPAS footbed is injection molded. This allows a more precise three-dimensional geometry that follows the profile of the foot more closely, helps distribute pressure more evenly and reduces concentrated pressure points and fatigue.

This is especially important in OKEPAS DUE, where the footbed supports all-day comfort and post-activity recovery.

On OKEPAS DUE, the inner liner and tongue area are made from flexible stretch-knit material, and the laces are stretch-engineered too.

Together, these elements let you adjust the fit according to your preference. Once you find the fit you like, you generally do not need to adjust the laces again: the stretch construction allows easy slip-on and slip-off without repeatedly untying the shoe.

Yes. OKEPAS UNO is specifically designed for use in and around water.

It features integrated water-drainage channels that help water escape from the shoe, together with a quick-dry construction. Its outsole also provides excellent grip on both wet and dry surfaces.

These features make UNO ideal for the beach, swimming pool, boat, seaside and other aquatic environments.

The OKEPAS outsole uses a specially engineered high-density EVA compound. It provides approximately 4× the abrasion resistance of standard EVA while weighing less than half as much as conventional rubber.

This combines durability, flexibility and lightweight comfort. The outsole is also engineered for excellent grip on wet and dry surfaces.
